What Causes Neuropathic Pain And Sleep Disorders?
What information is there about neuropathic pain (diabetic neuropathy), sleep disorders and iron infusions? I have been anemic for at leat 25 years, despite red meat, iron supplements etc. I have been evaluated by hematology with no real answer why, but now my neurologist is recomending an iron infusion.

hi
thanx for using hcm
diabetic neuropathy is one of the most troublesome complication of longstanding diabetes
with your added problems of anaemia &sleep disorders you seem to be in stress leading to anxiety neurosis.
long term anaemia for 25 years please get evaluated for renal function tests, any uterine problems leading to excessive bleeding,chronic worm infestations,or long standing infections,thyroid problems.
iron infusions after thorough iron studies can be of drastic help to increase your hb levels,it really works wonders.
take care
